Novel Palace
Chapter 50
Chapter 50
Skylar knew that her dark secret with Tobias would one day come to light and that she couldn’t hide it
forever.
As she opened the thread, her pupils immediately constricted, and her fingers turned pale from holding
her phone so tightly.
“F*ck! Who the hell did this?” she muttered.
The man in the photo wasn’t even Tobias; it was a balding, greasy-looking old man who had a beer belly
as huge as that of a woman who about to give birth.
And in the photo, Skylar was shown to be kissing this man. I’ve never even met him!
There were even screenshots of some sort of chat history, and the woman’s profile picture belonged to
her.
The conversation was filled with messages more provocative and steamy than what one would come
across in adult novels.
Then, Skylar scrolled to the bottom of the thread. There was a medical report stating she had an STD.
With that, Skylar finally figured it out. It’s no wonder they’ve been avoiding me like the plague.
In the comments, there are people who asked for her contact.
Some asked how much she charged. Some even claimed to be rich and offered to be her sugar daddy.
Skylar had no idea who could have been so horrendous as to Photoshop her pictures and upload them
to the forums.
The young lady suddenly felt thankful that she had experienced her fair share of tough circumstances in
the past. Otherwise, she probably would have wanted to die at this very moment.
Skylar immediately sent the thread link to Penelope, who spent every single day coding.
Skylar: Help me, Penelope! I need the IP address to this thread.
Penelope: Holy sh*t, Skylar. What the f*ck is this! What’s wrong with you? You kissed an old man? Aren’t
you only into hot guys?
Skylar: Of course, I didn’t, you dumba**! Help me find out who did all this to me!
Penelope: The picture’s obviously been Photoshopped. Give me a moment. A rookie like me needs
some time.
Skylar: Okay. I’m already viral anyway, so it doesn’t really matter if you take your time.
Skylar put her phone back into her pocket and decided to head back to her room for some rest.
On her way there, she bumped into Lydia and several other girls, all of whom had malicious smiles on
their faces.
Don’t get worked up, Skylar. You’ll get tumors easily if you do. You can’t afford to have cancer.
Skylar silently repeated these few sentences in her heart.
“Hold it right there, Skylar,” Lydia called out haughtily.
Skylar put the plate she was about to toss into the recycling bin back on the table and turned to the
group of ladies with a frown.
These girls were all Lydia’s bootlickers, and Shailene was their leader.
It was well-known that Lydia’s father was a famous director, so many tried to butter the girl up.
“Aren’t you afraid I’d infect you?” Skylar had a lazy but cocky look on her face.
Such a look gave the girls an impression that Skylar had a disease worth everyone’s praise and envy.
“You should apologize to us since you’ve humiliated the entire class.” As the class president, Lydia felt
like she now had a huge burden on her shoulders due to everything that had transpired.
Skylar scoffed, “Was I the one who posted the thread? I’m a victim too, for God’s sake! Why should I
have to apologize to you? Don’t you find that weird?”
Just then, Shailene stepped forward and remarked mockingly, “You shouldn’t have done such things if
you didn’t want to be exposed, then. I still can’t believe it. You actually slept with a geezer? Didn’t you
feel disgusted seeing all those liver spots when he got naked?”
Skylar raised an eyebrow lazily. “Oh wow, you actually sound rather experienced. Have you ever
watched an old man strip himself naked?”
Hearing her taunts, Shailene raised an arm in embarrassment and fury. “You jinx! You should’ve never Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
joined our class, you shameless homewrecker!”
The word “homewrecker” made Skylar turn numb.
Was I even given a choice?
I’ve never wanted to do such a thing. All I wanted was to study hard and make an earnest living.
